4 MPTP-Link VIGI C240I (2.8mm) — 4MP IR Dome with Human & Vehicle Classification
The C240I is the infrared sibling of VIGI's C240 dome: same 4MP sensor and AI feature set, but with Smart IR night vision in place of white light. That makes it the discreet option — after dark it watches in black and white with no visible glow, which suits sites where you'd rather record intruders than announce the camera. The 2.8mm wide-angle lens covers open areas such as retail floors, receptions and warehouses from a single point. Housing is IK10 vandal-resistant and IP67 weather-sealed, so it mounts confidently indoors or out, and PoE keeps the install to one cable.
Core Technology
- 4MP detail — 2560 × 1440 resolution gives playback enough pixels to zoom into faces and details that 1080p footage turns to mush.
- Smart IR night vision — Infrared LEDs illuminate the scene invisibly and self-adjust to avoid washing out close subjects — discreet monitoring, properly exposed.
- AI classification — The camera tells people and vehicles apart from other movement, so alerts and event searches skip the wind-blown false triggers.
- Smart detection — Area intrusion, line-crossing, object abandoned or removed, and tampering events are detected on-camera and pushed instantly.
- Vandal and weather rated — IK10 impact resistance plus IP67 sealing means it survives both deliberate knocks and Australian weather at accessible mounting heights.
- Efficient H.265+ recording — Heavy compression before transmission keeps storage requirements and network load down without visibly degrading the image.
Where It Fits
Choose the 2.8mm C240I for wide, closer-range scenes — shop floors, lifts, receptions and warehouses — where night-time discretion matters more than colour. The 4mm variant reaches further down corridors; the C240 adds full-colour night vision if deterrence suits the site better.
